Montreal Immunology Meetings (MIM) is a group of 9 principal investigators working as the organizing committee of an annual symposium to bring together the community of immunologists working in the Greater Montreal area. The goal of MIM is to continue the tradition of an annual symposium initiated by Immunology Montréal, a non-profit organization that dissolved in 2013. The annual symposium, as well as the informal "5 to 7" seminar series held throughout the year, have been great forums to foster interactions and collaboration between the members of the Montreal immunology community and beyond. In addition, it provides an additional source of education and training for our graduate students and postdoctoral fellows.

Our symposiums have been a huge success being attended by over 200 principal investigators, trainees and technical staff from the Greater Montreal area and beyond. Our symposiums include a full day of basic and clinical scientific seminars from local and international speakers, a trainee poster session and a catered lunch. These symposia were supported entirely by donations from participating universities as well as commercial vendors. We are excited to invite you to our 5th annual MIM symposium: Spatial Processes in Adaptive Immunity to be held on Wednesday, November 7th, 2018 at the Centre de Recherche du CHUM.

This MIM symposium is a one-of-a-kind knowledge translation event for immunologists in the Greater Montreal area. We look forward to seeing you soon!
